Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr. Harel couldn’t have been better to work with!
After years of dealing with many therapists I have finally found the one who understands me, hears me, listens to me, and truly understands me! The advice Dr. Harel gives is so helpful and I am finally learning to heal and grow. I recommend Dr. Harel to anyone fighting to find their way to inner peace and self love. She will help you find your way back!
Dr. Harel is very kind and understanding and is okay with whatever you’re most comfortable with and she is straightforward so you actually know what she is talking about she’s helped me more in the first session than my last therapist helped me in months I’d definitely recommend her.
She’s been very helpful to me!
The best therapist I've ever had
An excellent experience! She is insightful, knowledgeable, straightforward, and spot on!
Although we have had only a few sessions together, I already feel this is a great fit and I can't wait to work together more.
I really appreciated Dr. Harel's experience with trauma and most importantly her belief that one can heal from it. I have benefited greatly from working with her and feel more confident than ever in my abilities to live the best life possible.
Dr. Harel is a true beacon of light! She is very easy to connect with, kind, compassionate, and met me where I was at in my situation. She helped me to gain perspective and move through a tough time with more ease and grace. Knowing she was there for me was a huge support. Thank you Dr. Harel!
Shes cool
